SUMMARY:Faculty Seminar: Dr. Naama Geva-Zatorsky\, Monday 3/7 at 13:00 [No 
 Categories]
DESCRIPTION:Location: Auditorium\, Faculty of Biology  Dr. Naama Geva-Zaors
 ky\n Affiliation: Faculty of Medicine\, Technion\n Host:Sagi Levy\n The im
 munomodulatory treasure-trove of the gut microbiota\n\nEmerging evidence d
 emonstrates the pivotal role of gut microbes in shaping our immune system.
  Studies have shown a handful of immunomodulatory activities of a few indi
 vidual microbes and several consortia. We systematically characterized the
  role of over 50 human gut microbes from diverse genera and phyla\, repres
 enting the gut microbiota diversity. We find most microbes to have immunom
 odulatory effects spanning from innate to adaptive responses\, and with th
 e potential to be effective in a variety of diseases. Surprisingly\, these
  effects were not encoded in microbial phylogenetic background (i.e. micro
 bes from distant phyla could elicit similar effects and vice versa). And t
 hus\, this study opens a databank for immunomodulatory effects across phyl
 ogenetically diverse human gut microbes\, as well as a basis for our follo
 w-up studies on both the mechanisms of these interactions and the molecule
 s at play.
